Conny gurus, please check this 14393 3 SC

Bought this from a local auction the other day. I was really not in the market for yet another conny, but with the pretty sharp edges and what looked like a nice original dial with onyx markers, I thought why not throw in a bid (total ended at $1K). I have two weeks to return it, so no risk….

I’ve researched a bit on other 14393 3’s and in a thread one mention this ref. should have cross hair, but on the other hand, it’s not impossible to find pics of others without cross hair, so….. Please let me know your take on this, and on the watch in general. Serial is 17214… which put in around 1960/61.

Here’s some pics:





Annoying scratch on the caseback:




Original crown, or...?




One of the legs on the logo seems bend a little, or....?



Thank you.

You could return it to me instead!
